I haven't been following it closely but I heard that they're trying to blame all of Heard's issues on having borderline personality disorder, so I just want to say that having BPD does not make someone inherently a bad person or abusive in any way! This may add a stigma to mental health that we definitely don't need.

I haven't been following the case in a while but I heard about them trying to blame Amber Heard's actions on BPD, as Dez has said. I'm with them, because I'm worried this will just add to the stigma of mental health disorders; this is not a surprise coming from neurotypicals, trying to pin dangerous behavior on "something off in the brain"... seriously?

[FONT=""][COLOR=""][SIZE=""][FONT=""][COLOR=""][SIZE=""]They both awful and were likely in a cobattery relationship which can be common with dv. I think Depp has a bigger fan base and he was unfairly axed out of jobs while she got to keep hers.[/size][/color][/font][/size][/color][/font]

I agree with the fact that bringing mental health into the care and blaming it on that is extremely unfair to those who are genuinely good people.

They are both as bad as each other (and this is coming from someone who loves Depp!) I understand both of them have troubled backgrounds, and really, I think it was just a bad match between them, and both enabling each other's bad sides. Addiction and BPD isn't an excuse but I can see why it may be a factor into how bad things got between them. But still...they should've separated sooner before things got this bad or got help to deal with whatever was going on at the time. That would've been the more responsible thing to do, I think.

Agreed and I am also a massive fan of Johnny Depp too.
